This was almost a DNF...but I trudged through and finished it. The main character is whiny and angry. The story was far fetched, and honestly, a bit ridiculous.

Its been a while since I haven't been able to put down a book (or rather press pause)! What a ride! The narrator is somewhat unreliable, and the cuts to black are frequent. Its hard to believe them at face value. Its so well written! And the audiobook was just done perfectly! Highly recommend for anyone looking for their next thriller read.

I strongly considered bailing on this a couple of times, and I should have, as I frankly hated it. The main character is so angry, yet that‘s never really explored (it could have been interesting). Then after a certain point, the book just drags to it‘s not at all surprising conclusion. It‘s awful. Great cover, though.

TheBookHippie It‘s so pretty 😝 2y

Librariana I always love and appreciate your honesty 😊 Yay Holly!! No sense wasting time on bad writing or plot development or characters! 2y

Man, this has Hollywood movie script, M. Night Shyamalan written allllll over it! I haven‘t enjoyed twists this good since I binged some Twizzlers yo! Okay now that I‘ve got that out of my system, ugh my reading has been side-lined due to a new job. Absolutely LOVED the angle of this one - a past in a foreign country, crazy weird events, and there‘s me, just lapping up mystery like a dog in his bowl. Full review ScrappyMags.com

This was an interesting read. I have to say I did guess the big plot twist fairly early on but not all the details about how it came together. There were a couple of other twists that caught me by surprise. I found the story interesting but didn't thrill me quite as much as i hoped. Paloma is just so fundamentally unlikeable. Even by the end, I wasn't sure how I wanted her story to end. #Netgalley 3*

This entertaining thriller is a great recommendation for fans of the genre and it's Sri Lankan connection gives it a different twist. While the storyline and ending is a perhaps a little far-fetched, it is fiction and I enjoyed both the story and the characters.
